Glavine knows, you can never go home

Glavine can't buy a win in his old stomping ground Atlanta. Not that his numbers tonight warranted it. The veteran lefty allowed 7 hits, 1 walk, and 4 ERs in 6.2 innings.

In his first 6 innings Glavine did look great, allowing only 1 run, but it fell apart in the 7th where he allowed 3 earned runs.

Fantasy Outlook: I did recommend him last week, but I may have forgotten a disclaimer about starting him against Atlanta. The Jones boys, Julio Franco, and pretty much all of his former team have a field day against him, but his outing shows a lot of resilience considering his lifetime record is 1-7 with a 9.36 ERA. Look for Glavine to be solid for the rest of the season.
